Halloween is for sure my favorite time of year. The weather, the leaves, the outings, the horror movies.... It's no wonder that I have a whole playlist for it. I call mine "Super Spoopy Fun Times". You can call yours whatever you please, but you definitely need to have these songs in it.

1. Heads Will Roll - Yeah Yeah Yeah

A female lead singer, a good beat, and a Halloween-y theme. What more can you ask for?

2. The Songs From Hocus Pocus

Now it's nearly impossible to find the actual Bette Midler and Sarah Jessica Parker tracks, so I really enjoy these covers by Traci Hines.

3. The Nightmare Revisited Album

Yes, the whole album. Honestly, it's so good. Basically, they got together a bunch of really cool bands and people to cover the songs from Nightmare Before Christmas. Marilyn Manson does This Is Halloween, All-American Rejects do Jack's Lament, Flyleaf does What's This, Korn covers Kidnap the Sandy Claws, Amy Lee from Evanescence sang Sally's Song, the Plain White T's cover Poor Jack, and more! Above is one of my favorite covers because Boogie is one of my favorite villains.

4. Somebody's Watching Me - Rockwell

This song will forever scream Halloween to me. Probably has something to do with the Twilight Zone and Pyscho references....

5. Ghostbusters - Ray Parker Jr.

When have you been at a Halloween party and NOT heard this?

6. Time Warp - Rocky Horror Picture Show

Rocky Horror is a beloved Halloween tradition at Ball State so it's no wonder I associate this song with Halloween.

7. Werewolves of London - Warren Zevon

If you recognize that music, that's because Kid Rock took it for All Summer Long, but Werewolves of London.

8. Witch Doctor - David Seville

So this is actually the guy who created the Chipmunks, but this is just him and his own voice sped up.

9. Disturbia - Rihanna

Not traditionally a Halloween song, but I think it works.

10. Freakshow - Britney Spears

I actually got the idea for this song from a friend's playlist and I think it fits well.

11. Superstition - Stevie Wonder

This song always gives me Haunted Mansion with Eddie Murphy vibes.

12. Thriller - Michael Jackson

You had to know this was gonna be on here. How could it not be?

13. Witchcraft - Frank Sinatra

A little tame for this playlist, but it's one of my favorites.

14. Monster - Lady Gaga

15. Cannibal - Ke$ha

16. Highway to Hell - AC/DC

17. Monster Mash - Bobby "Boris" Pickett & The Crypt-Kickers

Another Halloween party classic for you.

18. Disney Halloween Medley - Jon Cozart & Voctave

If you're a Disney fan, this is necessary.

19. Evil - Dove Cameron

I know this is from Descendants. I know I'm a child. But this song is so good!

20. Halloween - John Carpenter

I mean, besides being the theme to one of the best known horror movies of all time, it's pretty catchy to listen to if you're trying to get ready.

21. The Twilight Zone Theme

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
